  • We Are Community

    This collage on our homepage is more than a collection of images; it's a window into the soul of our garden. It captures the moments of pure, unadulterated happiness that come from working together, learning from each other, and sharing the bounty of the earth. It's a celebration of life, community, and the simple yet profound joy of growing and giving. Welcome to our garden, where every harvest is a reason to smile, and every day is an opportunity to grow not just food, but joy and togetherness.

  • Our Vision

    Our vision is a world where every neighborhood blossoms with the vibrancy of community gardens, creating spaces where youth and elders come together to cultivate both the land and enduring relationships. We see a future where no child faces hunger, as they have access to fresh, nourishing produce right in their neighborhood. In this envisioned world, our elderly are not isolated but are integral to the community fabric, sharing wisdom and stories with younger generations.

     

    We dream of neighborhoods transformed into extended families, where the bonds of care and mutual support transcend socioeconomic divides. Our vision is to foster communities where everyone, young and old, is actively involved, valued, and connected, turning every neighborhood into a haven of abundance, joy, and intergenerational harmony.

    Cultivating Community Through Gardening and Giving

    Nurturing Growth:

    The Journey of Lead, Seed & Feed

    From a single dream of growing heirloom tomatoes to a flourishing community initiative, the Lead, Seed & Feed program embodies the spirit of growth, learning, and giving.

    Here, we share the journey of how we're feeding our neighborhood, one block at a time, fostering an intergenerational tapestry of connection and care.

  • What Makes us Unique?

    The Lead, Seed & Feed Fresh Garden Delivery Program stands out as an innovative model, transcending the concept of a traditional community garden. It’s a dynamic initiative where the process of growing, nurturing, and distributing organic fresh vegetables is at the heart of its mission. This program not only cultivates gardens but also fosters a network of education and support, delivering health and nourishment directly to the doors of the neighborhood, embodying a full circle of community empowerment and sustainable living.

  • How It Works

    The Process of Empowerment

  • broken image

    1. Elders Teaching:

    Sowing Seeds of Knowledge

    Our program begins with the wisdom of our elders, who share their knowledge of planting, tending, and nurturing with the youth. This exchange of wisdom not only cultivates a garden but also deepens community bonds. By passing down age-old gardening techniques and life lessons, elders instill a rich sense of heritage and respect for the earth in the younger generation.

    2. Daily Student Involvement

    Growing Young Gardeners

    Each day, students take on roles in the garden, from selecting seeds to watering plants. This hands-on involvement allows them to witness the cycle of growth firsthand, fostering a sense of responsibility and connection to nature. Their daily tasks evolve with the garden's needs, teaching them adaptability and the importance of regular care for living things.

    3. Harvest and Distribution:

    Harvesting Hope and Health

    The cycle of giving comes full circle with the harvest. Students gather ripe produce, package it, and deliver it to our neighbors, turning the fruits of their labor into acts of community nourishment and kindness. This final step reinforces the value of hard work and the joy of sharing, as students see the direct impact of their efforts on the community's well-being.

  • Growing Together:

    Community Harvest

    In the heart of our Lead, Seed & Feed program lies the essence of our vision: transforming neighborhoods into vibrant communities of growth, sharing, and intergenerational connection. As our students and elders come together to harvest the fruits of their collective labor, they do more than just gather produce; they weave the very fabric of community resilience and nourishment.

     

    This phase, "Harvesting Community Strength," is where the seeds of hard work bloom into acts of profound kindness and unity. Each vegetable picked and package delivered is a testament to the power of collaboration across generations. It's here, in the hands of our youth delivering fresh, nourishing produce to their neighbors' doorsteps, that we see our vision come to life.
